Hi!
I had never heard of Saikat Gochhait before GNOME.Asia Summit and my
experience has been less than positive: while Saikat registered for a
talk (about OLPC, not GNOME) which we approved he only let us know he
wouldn't attend the evening before his talk was scheduled (at 10:22pm -
mail available if needed).
I would be curious to know what other 'contributions' Saikat has done
for GNOME?
So to make it clear in the current circumstances I would be rather
opposed to Saikat membership approval.
Thank you very much.

Dear Jay and Frederic,
The GNOME Membership Committee is about to process Dr.Saikat Gochhait's
application to become a GNOME Foundation Member and therefore we would
like to receive some feedback about the applicant and the GNOME-related
work.
(past and present contributions are usually fine)
Please remember that vouching for a contributor means you really think
he/she deserves to be a Foundation Member and that you trust the
applicant and their
work for the global GNOME community. If unsure about vouching or not,
please let us know why you don't feel enough comfortable in advocating
this applicant.
For further details about the applicant, feel free to have a look at the
applicant's
application at the following link:

At your service,
The GNOME Foundation Membership Committee
